New managers Jamie and Lara have settled in and created
a peaceful atmosphere in the camp without compromising
the level of service. The wildlife around the camp is
now increasing as the rains have come to an end, and we
have a new resident pride of lion with two cubs! We are
very fortunate to have outstanding bird life and
currently, there are even more than usual as the
migratory species have returned. We have a new guide
joining us, Diwan Singh, with over 35 years guiding
experience and whose father used to guide Ernest
Hemmingway! |

Masai Mara - Kenya
|
During the
Christmas period Kenya experienced incredible rainfall,
as much as 7 inches falling in one storm in the Mara.
Fortunately our staff excelled once again and sheer hard
work allowed our guests to continue enjoying game drives
and the luxury safari camp life that they travel the
world for. There were wonderful sightings of our
resident prides of lion and their cubs and herds of
several hundred elephant. Our fleet of Landrover 101's
became indispensable! The Mara is looking stunning now
and its contrasting scenery of green grass and blue
skies is interrupted by a profusion of plains game, cats
and wild flowers. |

Kidepo Valley - Uganda |
We have
developed many fantastic walking trails, ranging from
family excursions to long overnight odysseys visiting
local tribal villages. Our current favourite seasonal
walk follows along a meandering riverbed, strewn with
massive smooth boulders, in a gorge deep below the
savanna. Beyond overwhelming scenery and tranquillity,
we have seen leopard hiding among boulders, grumpy
buffalo, silent reedbuck drinking in the pools and
tracks of brand new elephant calves. All of this on
foot!

Victoria Falls - Zambia |
What a great
start to the year - Tongabezi was listed on the Conde
Nast Traveller, Gold List in January 2007 as one of top
100 places to stay in the world, with 100% for service!
The Victoria Falls are filling up beautifully with the
rains and everything is looking luscious and green.
Tongabezi looks forward to welcoming your guests in 2007
and ensuring they have an unforgettable stay with us. |

Limpopo Province - South Africa |
Recent rains
(although thankfully no more freak twister storms!) have
left the bush very thick, green and lush. Whilst not
much game can be seen on the bush walks at
the moment, game drives have made up for this with
fantastic sightings! Sleep outs on the romantic open air
deck continue to be a highlight, even with the rain we
have had. |

This is supposed to be my secret, so I am not going to
give you exact quantities. See it as a chance to create
your own unique mix!
One tip: the longer it’s stored the better it
gets… and don’t worry when it starts to bubble!
Take fresh green chilies and garlic in equal quantities.
Chop as you choose.
Add freshly squeezed lemon juice and extra virgin olive
oil in equal quantities. |

Mowani Mountain
Camp
Damaraland - Namibia |
 |
You know the phrase “It’s a small world”? Recent guests
from Germany sent us the following:
“Do you remember during the time we stayed in the Camp
there was another couple from Germany? After talking
with each other we found out that they live about 600 km
away from us - and on the day we left they took a photo
of us. Now the funny part is, some weeks later I got a
call from an old colleague (who I have known for over 15
years) and she told me that the couple we met at Mowani
was her sister and husband. It's unbelievable...the
world is so small.”
Mowani Mountain Camp - a place where old friends meet -
even if you don’t know it! |
